Mel needs to ride the Pine

Re: Melsahn Basabe calls cupcakes "bums"

Yeah, well...Basabe can have his cake and eat it too....cause the only bums out there today was the so called 'veterans' of that team.
 
Re: Melsahn Basabe calls cupcakes "bums"

MB is quickly gaining the reputation of being a lazy bum himself. Word spreading quickly he takes this same approach in the classroom.

If he doesn't step it up, and FAST, he will get passed by, or I smell another transfer.

Marble isn't too far behind either.

This is where we find out more about Fran, can he manage ego's?

1 for 3 with 2 points. Yeah, I would say there is room for improvement. Bums? Stay classy man.

It's probably just the way Mel talks (RE: bums)

You know, slimes and all that stuff. Still, would like to see him step up during the games he is referring to as the real games. He's just a sophomore, but Iowa will need his best this year.

On top of that, he's from New York. Isn't that a pretty common term out east?
 
Whatever's wrong..someone said he's sick, I hope that's true cause that'll mean he'll get over it soon. But if he plays like he did today I want him to sit as well. If that makes me an internet tough guy, then tough guy I am! I just want the best players on the court.

Yep.

Honestly, I have no idea. I'm just a geeky midwest dude. I'm not trying to make a mountain out of a molehill... just sounded like he wasn't too kind to the easy non-conf opponents.

Also, I do think it's a bit early to get down on Mel, a lot of season left to turn it around.
 
When he was on the floor, Iowa was playing 4-on-5.

A couple of times Gatens was saying something to Mel, and the second time that I saw, MB blew him off and Gatens was po'd.
